I've never had problems with condenser mics. Granted, I've been doing voice acting and music recording for many years, so I understand the potential drawbacks. Still, I would rather have more editing to do in post and have great audio than use a dynamic mic and have (very slightly) diminished quality.
Qualifications for part D include having Part A, Part B and/or Part C. If I am eligible when does it become effective? Medicare becomes effective when you turn 65, the first day of that month. For example, if you turn 65 on October 20th, 2009 your Medicare coverage would have become effective October 1st, 2009. There are also general enrollment periods from January 1 to March 31 of each year. If you choose to enroll this way, coverage becomes effective on the first of July of the same year.
Will I Automatically Be Enrolled In Medicare When I Turn 65? One of the many benefits of turning 65 is to be eligible to receive Medicare regardless of your health. If you are enrolled in, or are receiving social security benefits, you will be automatically enrolled in Medicare A and B when you turn 65. Your Medicare benefits will become effective on the first day of your birth month. The only exception is if your birthday falls on the first day of the month.
